"I wanna go to bed with arms around me,
but wake up on my own,
pretend that I'm still sleeping,
until you go home."
You date new people, meet new people. She doesn't sing about one person here, she sings about the strings of people you encounter during life. She wants to be protected and loved, yet can't make a connection with them (yet or ever?).
"When I don't believe in love you're to close to me,
thats why you have to leave."
This verse talks about new people in her life, coming and going; she's unable to establish an emotional connection and that's why she wants them to leave. She wouldn't be singing this song to a person that she could make an emotional connection to.
Whoever is next to her at that time, if she can't believe in actual connection happening or will happen, she can't bare the thought of not being able to give as much as she would receive from a person who's fallen for her. It's a very moral thing to do, I think. It's best to wish them farewell after realizing it just can't happen.
My interpretation is something. like this.
